That photo showing the spread of petals on the ground is fabulous. I finally figured out that Bayard Cutting was a person, and that the arboretum was established by his family. I grew up with a grandmother who adored her cutting garden, and I couldn’t quite figure out what the nature of a ‘cutting arboretum’ would be. Grandma’s flowers came back fairly quickly after she cut a bouquet. Trees would take much longer. Silly me!
